We Thought That There Were 3K Potential Terrorists In the UK–The Real Figure Is Much, Much Higher
IWB ^ | Mark Angelides

For the last year, campaigners against Radical Islam have been quoting the figure of 3,000 potential Jihadis currently living in the UK. These people are a mix of native-born and migrants and are believed to be a possible risk in terms of either carrying out or being support networks for terrorist attacks on UK soil. But the latest figures released by a Whitehall source to The Times, show that the real number is in fact more than seven times higher.

The government source say that since 2001, the figure has risen to more than 23,000 potential jihadists currently living and operating in the UK. And the Security Services are all but powerless to do anything about them.

According to RT.com, the Security Services only have the ability and resources to permanently watch 3,000 suspects. They constantly shift the targets watched based upon whether or not they believe they are still a risk (so they lose their position in the top 3,000 and are no longer surveilled). Would it surprise you to know that the two successful terror attacks committed in the UK this year (the Whitehall car attack and the Manchester bombing last week), were both carried out by people who had previously been on the surveilled list, but were considered “former subjects of interest”.

How many muslims are there in England?

That’s how many potential jihadists they have.

Any muslim can suddenly start following the example and instructions of their prophet at any time.

Sudden Jihad Syndrome

Mad Mo made it so.

And I'd wager that a good percentage of them are living on the dole. In other words, the idiot citizens of England are paying the people who will murder them.

"Insanity" has a new definition.

When all these terrorists come out of the woodworks simultaneously in a coordinated attack on the population, it will be the end of the UK.

The brits need to spend more money watching these creeps than they spend on socialized medicine and other bennies. Just the cost of doing business, I guess. Stay broke and carry on.

The UK only has enough manpower to WATCH them. Same as here where there’s watching but not much stopping.

Many on both sides of the pond refuse to admit that fact, and are studiously ignoring it.

Not a new problem.
Not rocket science...

What, again is the definition of insanity??

Rivers of Blood Speech 1968!

The One main function of a legitimate civilized modern nation-state is the safeguarding of the lives and safety of ItS OWN citizens FIRST AND FOREMOST.
If it fails that, it is an illegitimate nation state and it will die...

It's a no brainer.
It's not rocket science.

If conditions beyond the control of a civilized state are such that tens or hundreds of thousands of men, women and children must die to eliminate the threat, the ultimate crime a legitimate state can commit is to give the horde of two-legged primitive barbaric killer ANIMALS the same rights to life and liberty and mercy as it grants its own citizens.

SUCH A STATE MUST BE REJECTED, ELIMINATED AND REPLACED!

It is not rocket science.

ISN'T 50 YEARS AND HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF INNOCENT LIVES LOST IN THE LAST CENTURY ALONE ENOUGH TO HAVE WEIGHED THE QUALITY OF MERCY?

Greatest tragedy in British history was Edward Heath beating out Enoch Powell for Tory Leader.

In my opinion, England and the EU has committed its own suicide by allowing hordes of Muslims aka terrorists into their countries.

Comments anyone?
